My Short-term goal
What is a short-term goal? A short-term goal is something you want to do in the near future. The near future can mean today, this week, this month, or even this year. A short-term goal is something you want to accomplish soon. A short-term goal I will like to accomplish will be to maintain a high G.P.A this fall of 2016.

Such as timing that will allow me to take my son to school and pick him up along with working on the weekends and having enough time to study in between all
